Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

St. Louis Area City Championship! Prize Added!!

That battle between you and Colin was one of the best in Pokemon History...yes it took forever, but you all played it all out. Just so happens Nike won $200 and Colin won $10!

I will do whatever Nintendo requires me to do. We will not go 2 out of 3, I am anticipating too many people for that to be effective (45 minute rounds my foot, you all wouldn't take 3 prizes by then!)

I am not sure about the cutting to a top number, it appears it will be the best of the swiss. Top 8 makes as many problems in an age modified swiss event as it solves. Works for 1st place, and for 2nd, but for the rest, there is the potential for a lot of ties.

I would love to get TX style numbers and hold it as 3 events, each with a top 8, but I am not projecting THAT many people....

Talk to you all soon. Reminder no Gathering Ground League this Saturday. Nuetral Zone in St. Charles has league from 12-3 though (Colin I can pick you up if need be)

Thanks

Vince

Yay, got all the cards for my deck... just gotta work on the sister's. Any of you guys got any extra Birches and Desert Shamans? Just wonderin, if you do I'll trade for em when I get to the tourney.

Btw, Vince, I still don't know my Pop Id and password, lol. If you could pm them to me anytime, that'd be cool. If not, i'll find out what it is when I get to the tourney I s'pose.

WE ARE ALL GETTING EXCITED - only 3 weeks away. Next week I get to flex my playing ability at Doks tourney - hope to do better than I did at the FAT (111th, thanks for asking, my 8 year old made the top 50!)...

Hope to see you all soon, and pwn you.

Most likely I will just get to judge you...

Meganium45 - Now a believer in the Newman Madness method of deckmaking!
 
Speaking of Newman... is he coming to the Gathering Ground CC by any chance? It'd be wonderful to have that fierce competition of his there ^_^
 
Fierce competition is one thing but playing against a crybaby is another. He's alright outside of the card game though. I heard about the secret deck Vince, but I ain't gonna let it out. I'm skeptical...very skeptical, but I could see it working...kinda? lol

Vince, I know you're gonna go to the Collinsville CC, and so am I, but is there anyone else goin cause I don't really wanna drive all the way down there by myself... :( Anybody, just let me know...

NE wayz, I can't wait either. I'm stoked, and I ain't sure which deck I wanna play, it's narrowed down to 2 of my 3, but I think I'm gonna go with a revamped verzion of old faithful???

Duck
:D
 
Yeah, he is kinda a crybaby sometimes lol. Its ok to tolerate though, u just argue with him about how you won by strategy and not because his deck crapped out on him.

Looking forward to your competition too, Chad =) This tourney is going to rock, and I think we may pull more than 40 in, seeing as how all the other CC's are pulling in 50s and such. We should do just as well!

Cyas in a teensie weensie bit before 3 weeks. I'm psyched!

hey fine i will take my share of the poking but you must give me credit i am the only female player in the st. loius area that actually comes to all your events, vince. No serious offense takin. I guess i am a part of you guys know but let's face it its kind of hard when ur the guy wit a bunch of females around annd no other males around. but in my case that can be good when i am the only female around. well you know how girls r when a buuch of guys are in the room.:D but its hard veing the only femakle around who knows wats she is doing at times so juts to let u know i a m not mad and vince bring me back a good souvenier

Gah, I saw the location thread hasn't had a post since January and I thought my unavoidable absence from the Internet had caused me to miss something big.

Sounds awesome. Gotta figure out how to get over there on the 28th... Can't take the bus. Told my parents about taking the bus when I went to the Sandstorm Prerelease and my mom didn't approve (mostly about the being at a downtown bus station until 3 in the morning part). And I don't think I can afford it this time anyway.

Wait, there was someone or other who was also a Rolla student, right? Who was that?
 
Unless PUI overrules me, the following fossil rule will take place in Colinsville, St. Louis and Sedalia.

Each player has 5 minutes from match start to set up their area. If a player does not have their match started for WHATEVER reason, then a judge will be called over. If it is deemed by the judge to be delay, then a warning will be given to the offending player.

After a warning, if it happens again during the day, then a prize penalty will be awarded. This will take care of the fossils, the slow starts, and those needing to sleeve their decks.

I am going to make in uniform across all situations, and that is the ruling you can expect from me at all events I judge, the pre-releases, the 3 state tourneys, and hopefully nationals.

Until PUI updates or overrules me, if you can mulligan 10 times, but do it fast, mulligan all you like.
